Bobcats' Biyombo benefits from team vets
CHARLOTTE -- Seven-footers with 270-pound frames arent used to waiting around for much when it comes to basketball. Playing time, rebounds, blocked shots and multi-year contracts all seem to come to them easily at times.
Yet, there Brendan Haywood sat in a suit, waiting for a chance. Not in a warm-up suit, but a navy pinstriped suit, sitting alongside his mother in the Green Room...

POTD 2/8/13: Kevin Durant on Markieff Morris
His extraordinary coordination allows him to fool his defender with a hesitation dribble. His lightning quickness gives him the burst that sets him free. His stunning athleticism facilitates takeoff from the edge of the painted area, and his seven-foot, five-inch wingspan enables him to finish over the top of the help. Simply put, Kevin Durant is the ideal prototype of a scorer...
The Deer Strikes Back - Bobcats lose 108 to 93
As is often the case with NBA scheduling, mercy is in short supply. The guys have been dealing with some especially hard knocks of late. Perhaps, the scheduling gods thought, the time is ripe for an away/home back-to-back. Starting things off is a trip up to Milwaukee for a game against the streaking Bucks. Luckily for the Bobcats, the “Deer” have been streaking in the same direction...
Bobcats' big man Mullens still refining game
As Brendan Haywood quietly sits with ice packs on both knees, legs bent and sore, his eyes dart around the visitor's locker room searching for a connection.
The question concerns his frontcourt running mate, Byron Mullens, an unorthodox big man whose game Haywood is having trouble to compare, flickers of similarities and differences visibly going off in his head. He's only...
Positives sprinkled in with Cats' defensive ills
CHARLOTTE, NC For most of Friday night, the Charlotte Bobcats were done in by their defense; their not-so-good defense.
Call it lackluster, call it weak in the paint, call it strategic miscommunication. Whatever it was, the Philadelphia 76ers took advantage in a 104-98 victory over the home team at Time Warner Arena.
It didn't have to be that way, however. Bobcats coach...
Bucks must avoid trap game against Charlotte
The Charlotte Bobcats won just seven games in 2011-12, by far the worst team in the NBA. Just how bad? The second worst team in the league won 13 more games than Charlotte. The Bobcats were putting their hopes into the NBA Draft lottery, hoping to land star big man Anthony Davis.
He was going to instantly come in and change the franchise. Just one problem, the lottery ping pong balls...

Haywood doing little things for Bobcats
DALLAS-- Brendan Haywood's stat line from the Bobcats' 90-89 win on Friday night at Time Warner Cable Arena in Charlotte to open the 2012-13 regular season wasn't exactly eye-popping: four points, nine boards and no blocked shots in just over 31 minutes of action.
But Bobcats first-year head coach Mike Dunlap wasn't too concerned about his starting center's...

Bobcats to show improvement under Dunlap
While technically it could get worse than last seasons 7-59 record, which gave the Charlotte Bobcats ownership of the worst winning percentage in NBA history, theoretically it cant.
No way the Bobcats -- with their new look, new coach and some interesting additions to the roster -- can possibly be as unsuccessful as last years squad. Thats at least the attitude within the franchise...
